Budget 2021 clears first major hurdle


KUALA LUMPUR: Budget 2021 completed its first major hurdle when it was passed in the Dewan Rakyat at the policy stage amid earlier uncertainties over whether Perikatan Nasional could garner support for it.

The Budget was passed at 3.24pm after Dewan Rakyat Speaker Datuk Azhar Azizan Harun called on lawmakers to vote on it shortly after Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz concluded his ministerial replies.
